Isco 6712 Automated Portable Sampler

Autosamplers play a crucial role in modern mining operations, where consistent, accurate, and efficient sampling is essential for quality control, resource estimation, and compliance. Here’s how autosamplers are used at mine sites:

Autosamplers automatically collect and prepare representative samples for analysis. This eliminates human error, ensures consistency, and allows for real-time monitoring of material quality and process performance.

Autosamplers are the perfect product to use when taking samples from tailings streams or discharge water to monitor for compliance. They combine rugged durability with high-end performance. Encased in an environmentally sealed controller, they resist water and dust ingress, ensuring reliable operation even in extreme weather. Users can quickly configure routine sampling tasks or dive deeper into more complex programs, all supported by a helpful on-screen guide. TheSDI-12 interface capability makes it simple to connect with compatible water-quality sondes and other devices.

Whether you’re sampling from challenging locations or facing changing environmental conditions, the autosampler will be suitable. It draws samples at velocities recommended by the EPA and from heights up to 26 feet. The pump revolution counter and the patented liquid detection sensor ensures accurate, consistent volumes every time.

The autosampler can hold up to eleven bottles, including a jumbo option that accommodates bottles up to 21 litres and can provide both sequential and composite sampling.

An additional benefit are the connectivity options for cellular modems to be used which allow programming changes and data collection to be performed remotely. Smart Alarms can also be configured to alert users to issues in real time and reduce the need for on-site supervision.
